    Harvard Medical School:     This is an important and credible work. Written for intelligent parents of infants and young children in carefully and clearly written text, it reviews many of the common medical and behavioral problems seen in this age group. The author very clearly reports on when to call the physician--an important aid for worried parents. The book is very user friendly, easy to read, and written with humor.
Description: All parents have faced the frustration of seeing their child sick and not knowing whether to rush to the doctor, offer over-the-counter remedies, or do little and wait to see if the problem passes. So too we have all faced those times when our children seem well but will not cooperate with behaviors involving eating, sleeping, or other activities. Emory University Pediatrician Roy Benaroch wrote this guide to help parents understand the most common childhood maladies and "misbehaviors," and know what the best options are for action. Himself the father of three, Benaroch shares the insights of a medically-trained parent, telling us what he would do if his own child developed each malady. The topics addressed range from abdominal pain, ear infections and vomiting to issues with eating, sleeping and toilet training. Benaroch includes the most recent research in each area, and shares vignettes from his own practice, and his own household. Known widely simply as "Dr. Roy," he is also the author of How to Get the Best Healthcare for Your Child (Praeger, 2007).
